Intro: Play G chord, but hammer on the 3 from an open E. Listen to recording. He
also hammers and pull offs a 1 on the B string
Walk-up
Silence is golden some may say, some may say
?
I say silence is an aimless time to kill
Its a restless feeling pounding on my brain both night and day
and these old wheels of mine spin louder as it builds
Repeat for rest of song
Yes the sky would surely fall if my dear eardrum did fail
to beat a single time, in time or out
Some may make it out alright and some may have never known
but these old wheels spin far too loud, far too loud
For I love to hear a chorus from the morning bird choir
and the sounds of coffee boiling on the pot
How I love to hear I love you in a dry morning tone
And just assume that if I canât these wheels would stop
Yes happy is the day I lay my poor head down
with neither trial nor trouble to compete
with the chirp of summer crickets nor a tree frogâs croak
And these old wheels slow down enough so that I may sleep
Solo is just the chord progression again
Silence is golden some may say, some may say
I say silence is an aimless time to kill
Itâs a restless feeling pounding on my brain both night and day
and these old wheels of mine spin louder as it builds
